Festivus Pole in Madison Wisconsin...

  • You do realize this is a Husky Football forum, right? No one gives a fuck about citing proper legal form.

    My original point was I agree with the opinion of the concurrence. Not speculation about whether today's court would uphold it.

    HTH. Merry Xmas (I like to call it Xmas)

    ... and what exactly does your agreement with not allowing nativity scenes in Pittsburgh have to do with Husky Football, or Festivus Poles in Madison, Wisconsin, or anything else for that matter? You really need to pull your head out of your ass.

    mods?

    If you read the article you'd see the line "tourists who venture one floor up will encounter a panoply of beliefs - from those who embrace Christianity to those who prefer a fictional holiday created by "Seinfeld," and those who shun religion altogether."

    The second part of the Allegheny v ACLU decision is summarized as "A different majority held that the menorah display did not have the prohibited effect of endorsing religion, given its "particular physical setting". Its combined display with a Christmas tree and a sign saluting liberty did not impermissibly endorse both the Christian and Jewish faiths, but simply recognized that both Christmas and Hanukkah are part of the same winter-holiday season, which, the court found, has attained a secular status in U.S. society."

    So my point is: what's the problem with the festivus pole?

    I assumed you were mocking in it in the OP.

    Try to keep up.

    SHEESE! ENOUGH! I celebrate Festivus. Maybe you never heard the old saying about ass-u-ming? Try to keep up. The only person I was mocking was you.

    Show some respect for FESTIVUS, dammit, and save it for the airing of grievances for once in your life.

    Wow, this thread turned out better than I ever imagined it would based on the original topic.
